Take the barometer to the roof of the building. Drop the barometer from the edge of the roof, and, with your wrist watch or a stop watch, measure the time it takes for the barometer to hit the ground or the street below. Then the height of the roof, in meters, is 4.9 times the square of the time in seconds.

densk [106]

Answer:10.4 times of initial velocity

Explanation:

Given

Diameter reduced by 69 %

it approaches with velocity v_0

suppose its velocity is v during blocked passage

suppose d is the initial diameter and d_2 diameter is

d_2=d(1-0.69)

d_2=0.31 d

A_2=\frac{\pi d_2^2}{4}

As flow is constant

Q_1=Q_2

d^2v_0=d_2^2v

v=10.40 v_0
